Okay, there's one benefit from LLMs.
post
They still ask you why their garbage doesn't work or how to run a PDF.
I'm not even a computer programmer, I do industrial automation!
What are the three logos?
- Cursor https://cursor.com/en
- Claude Code https://claude.ai/
- Lovable https://lovable.dev/
Oh, I didn't even recognize one as a logo and was completely fine with the meme adding a blood-splat to the soldier.
That's Kurt Vonnegut's illustration of an anus.
What are the icons? Some sort of AI code products?
I can read this as either: AI allows anyone to code their own stuff.
Or
AI is hogging all the million dollar ideas.
AI stops tech bros from bothering real programmers
AI is hogging all the million dollar ideas.
At least my million dollar ideas friends wasting AI's time with the useless crap, instead of ruining a perfectly nice meal conversation with me.
Of course, I know it is only buying me a few months. The "quick fix to my AI app" requests are gathering on the horizon.
I still think no-code tools are better suited for building prototypes without requiring development knowledge in order to prove your idea. LLMs just added a complicated extra-step.
Ah yes because we need more apps.
But these aren't just any apps, these are shitty half-assed apsps generated from a slurry of unrelated mediocre code scraped from the corners of the web.
I am not looking forward to next year when every new aspect of any service I use online will have an 80% chance to be a half-assed shit slurry.
Today's 65% chance was already time consuming and exhausting.
am i wrong or is this a terrible meme format for what it's trying to say?
edit: it was the former
I was initially confused as well, but I do think the meme format matches.
I like it to be honest
idk the soldier is supposed to be a negation/protection rather than providing/helping with something.
this seems more appropriate for the mercy meme or something.
Vibe-coding is absolutely protecting real programmers from the constant bombardment of wannabe entrepreneurs that just need a tech person to write their idea.
I’d argue it is protecting programmers. Previously, people would waste programmers’ time with poorly concepted/uncreative app ideas. But now people are going “oh I can do that on my own”, and wasting their own time with AI vibe coding.
The old "I have this great idea for an app! If you build it for me, you can have 10% of the profits!".
And then you ask for the idea, and at first they don't want to give it away with your agreement, and in the end it turns out to be either whatsapp of amazon.
